Chapter 1461: Chapter 635: A World Where Only Lilith is Hurt_2

After thorough research, she finally understood that the stone bearing the Blood God’s Authority was the most unique of all authority stones: the power to control blood was an extreme force, and only those of utmost evil or supreme goodness could unleash its true potential.

The reason Lilith had never been fully acknowledged by the Blood Authority Stone was due to her innate kindness being accompanied by a lingering shred of selfishness. This selfishness, intrinsic to human nature, theoretically makes one a person; yet it was precisely this selfishness that hindered the stone from truly accepting her.

Unable to ascend as a god, the followers of the Blood God gradually became disillusioned and departed. Inevitably, this lineage of the Blood God would decline and fade, overshadowed by countless other divine authorities.

Until one day, Lilith’s tribe encountered a natural disaster, causing countless members of the Divine Race to hover near death. They desperately needed the Blood God’s power to save the people from peril. Lilith finally resolved to transfer all her selfishness into her right arm and severed it entirely.

This marked the origin of the world-famous holy painting: the armless Saint Lilith, standing amidst a pool of blood, cradling a crying infant. Beside her crouched a monstrous beast with a vicious face, gnawing on a severed arm.

Lilith’s gentle gaze at the infant in her arms exuded maternal radiance, compelling all who beheld the scene to kneel in reverence.

This moment was immortalized by a painter, and thereafter spread widely among the Divine Race.

Everyone who saw the painting interpreted it to mean Lilith willingly sacrificed her arm to feed the starving beast, solely to save an ordinary Divine Race infant from its clutches.

Thus, the name "Saint Lilith the Blood God" became universally renowned.

On that day, Lilith became the true Blood God and gained countless devoted followers.

Later, the Blood Clan followers discovered that the Blood God’s right arm had been restored. They believed that the Blood God used her authority to regenerate the severed limb.

But only Lilith herself knew that the restored arm was merely an illusion.

Her actual right arm was, in truth, the child she cradled with her left arm in the painting...

"That child, could it be..." Katerina stared in shock at the girl inside the cage, already aware of an earth-shattering possibility.

"Yes, the child in the painting is you."

The girl in the cage spoke apologetically, "Katerina, you are my right arm, the fragment of selfishness that I severed."

Katerina froze in place, having finally understood everything.

No wonder, before their departure, the Almighty Lord had assured her not to worry about being parasitized by the Divine Beast; it was because she was essentially not a complete person, but merely a transformed arm...

"After becoming the Blood God, to prevent my selfishness from returning to my body, I sealed you within the server of the Star Spirit World."

"In theory, you should not have been able to grow since we are bound in one existence. The stronger I became, the more I suppressed you, keeping you perpetually dormant."

"Later, when Cain killed me and my soul fell into silence, you began to grow. But you could never leave the server and were gradually assimilated into a mundane existence within the server, endlessly cycling through birth, aging, illness, and death..."

"The attachment and admiration you feel for me are merely the innate homing instinct of a fragment toward its source. You and I are one and the same, so you unconsciously approach me, even across two realms, always hearing my voice and summons..."

"Now, with my complete resurrection, you will vanish once more..."

"That is why I cannot come back to life..."

Lilith recounted everything calmly.

In front of her, Katerina’s tears flowed like rain.

Even though she now understood everything, and knew that her reverence for the Blood God was merely the homing instinct of a fragment toward its source, she still couldn’t bear to see the Blood God die for her. She would rather sacrifice herself.

Katerina wanted to speak, but when she looked up, she saw a naked, headless female figure emerge from the Sea of Blood not far away.

The figure moved beside Lilith’s head, opened the cage, and the girl’s head inside floated out, attaching itself to the severed neck, merging as one.

The figure transformed into the armless Blood God Lilith.

At the same time, twelve corpses behind Katerina floated upright under Lilith’s control and gently descended into the surrounding blood.

The next moment, the blood began to churn and boil, surging towards the twelve skeletons and Katerina’s feet.

All at once, Katerina felt an extraordinary rush of Divine Power flooding into her body.

Its source was none other than the armless Lilith standing before her.

Katerina instantly understood Lilith’s intention: not only was she resurrecting her child, but she was transferring all her divine power to Katerina, making her the new Blood God!

"No, mother... I don’t want this; I never wished to become the Blood God..."

Katerina shook her head and cried continuously, trying to resist the influx of power.

She had never desired to become the Blood God; she simply wanted Lilith to live, willing to pay any price for it.

But alas, it was all beyond her control. Lilith had already seized full control, leaving her to helplessly watch events unfold in the direction she feared most.

The surging blood soon soaked her and the twelve corpses’ feet, while countless ghostly shadows of resentful spirits rose from the blood, circling her with snarling and savage faces. They lunged at her as if intent on devouring her completely.

Katerina felt an overwhelming torrent of resentment erupting from the blood and invading her body, violently assaulting her psyche.

But in the next instant, the fury vanished, replaced by a warm, nurturing embrace.

Katerina opened her eyes to find Lilith had moved behind her, holding her tightly.

The attacking spirits were blocked by Lilith’s bare body; diverted, they swarmed onto Lilith, devouring her flesh ravenously.

Under the authority of the Blood God, wounds constantly appeared on Lilith’s body, healing quickly, cycling between injury and recovery without end.

The unfathomable torment resembled suffering by a thousand cuts, so unbearable that even Katerina merely watching felt the pain and suffocation.

Yet amid all this agony, Lilith’s expression bore neither suffering nor distress; only relief and serenity.

Lilith gazed tenderly at Katerina, whispering comfort into her ear, while also addressing the twelve skeletons around them.

"Children, don’t worry. With your mother here, these spirits won’t harm you..."

"My flesh is enough to feed all the spirits, pacify their resentment, and guide them to ascend to heaven..."

"The innocent inheritors will be revived one by one..."

"And you, my child, will inherit my power to become the new Blood God..."

"Forgive me, my child. I don’t wish for you to be entangled in disputes again. I hope you and the others will live peacefully and joyfully. But we each have unfulfilled duties that require completion, and the power of the Blood God is indispensable for that..."

"Do not fear; you and I share the same source, and the Blood Authority has long merged with me after countless years together—it will not reject you..."

"And in the future, I ask you to care for your twelve brothers and sisters..."

...

Katerina listened silently to the words like parting whispers by her ear, her tears falling wordlessly.

The blood continued to rise, gradually covering her legs, abdomen, chest, mouth, and nose... until her last scrap of vision was submerged by the blood.

Amid the Sea of Blood, only thirteen humanoid figures enveloped by concentrated blood remained.

At the edges of the Blood Sea, the churning waters began to recede inward, the surface slowly lowering. All the energy within the Blood Sea converged toward the center, gathering within the thirteen figures...

Beneath the blood, the Lamp God’s corporeal form was taking shape visibly...
